>Why not report on the torture and rape of these same civilians by Saddam? Once this war is over and Saddam is removed, these civilians will not be tortured and raped anymore. Had the U.S. and British done nothing, it would have continued until Saddam died, then probably under the reign of one of his sons. Where is the outrage in S.A. about that?
I don't know for sure, but I have the impression that these facts are overlooked. Very one-sided, for sure. But then, as you are probably aware, hate against the U.S. isn't anything new in S.A.
Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
